APRIL '08 Vermont K-1 Filers

[KimandRuss 0]

Bex... not only am I a drinker... i'm a beer and tequila (don julio ) girl! Very good family friends own a couple of great pubs in town and my mom works there now for fun (she retired in her early 50's) so about once or twice a week we hang out there with a large group of really great people. It's great fun! I think the standards vary greatly here in U.S. depending on where you are ... so if you're needing a sense of home cmon up to Boston and we'll hook ya up!

Thanks for the well wishes Alex!

I'm also hoping you're next aleena!

I realize I could be setting myself up for some dissapointment but boy am I psyched to an April filer go through!!!

Well done to the first people to be approved, yeeha!!! Corona for me please, oh hang on there's some downstairs anyway. Be right back.........................

I even found some chips too so having those to celebrate as well!!!!!!

For Bex, we are going to a bar called Piper's Pub in Pittsburgh on Saturday. They sell pretty much all English and Scottish beers. So it will be a few Strongbows for me that day!! Hopefully I can talk Megan into going up there for 12 noon to watch the Heineken Cup Final, not sure she'll be up for that though.

The Celtics start their series with Detroit tonight so we'll be out if anyone wants to join us.

Graham, can I borrow Megan to be our DD???

I'll see what she says Kim, I'm pretty sure she would be fine with that!! Hopefully Detroit don't win at all this week in the NBA and the NHL.

I have a little bit of news too, I might be leaving this wonderful country to go back and some some hard graft at home. Got the offer of a job today and depending on pay and conditions I might be heading back sooner rather than later. Ok make that the job starts on Monday of this coming week!!!

Oh wow MONDAY?!?!? Good Luck Graham.

Kim I am a beer girl too. Ever since I was ... lol i was going to say young but seeing as I am only 21 that doesn't really work. I have always been able to drink a lot of beer without it effecting me very much - definitely my dads daughter. I'm only 5ft and when I go out the guys want to buy me coolers and wine spritzers - watch their jaws hit the ground when I'm on my 8th pint and sober as a policeman. I've lost a lot of weight recently and that has hindered my drinking capabilities some what but I can still give Alan a run for his money. We will have definitely have to make the trip up there to visit you Kim, we can leave the men at home and go and have a proper "session."

@ ever since you were young! Yes! It does sound like we should get together sometime! I'm 5'8.5" but also have a very high tolerance...hence the tequila! I lost about 200 pounds 10 years ago (weight watchers )and it effected me as well but I seem to have ....errr adjusted now. NC isn't 'that' far away...driven it many times.

Graham! How do you feel about that??? How does Megan feel? Is it a contract job? Do they know you'll be leaving in a couple months? ...yes, i'm nosey!

Here's to all the beer people!

i got my baby hooked on Romanian beer!

Good stuff!

He actually made me "steal" a couple beer glasses from a bar with the beer name on them. he said when i am back to America we will drink Bud Ligh out of them and i can pretend i am home

the beer glasses are in america already waiting for me

i am not saying not to Vodka or Tequilla either

[GrahamandMegan 1]

It's acontract job for 4-8 weeks working up the north of Scotland. She seems ok about it right now but we are meant to be having a Doctor's appointment on June 2nd. But I won't hear back from them now until tomorrow, dumbass time difference!!! They don't know about the Visa thing I only put on my Resume that I'd been travelling for the last 3 months with my fiancee. Well I did make 2 flights to get here and have been here for 3 months, I just never told them that she lives in the USA!!! I'm pretty happy with the idea as I would be able to get some more money together for when the whipper snapper comes along. We're going to talk tonight about it and see how she feels about it.

I don't know many people who would say no to a Vodka Aleena!!! And Bud Light is simply awful!!

You totally got the point...lol

I told him i will not taint my beer glasses with American beer...lol

Steven got me drinking Corona, the Mosquitos seemed to love it! I am a beer drinker to, My brother bought Steven those glasses that are beer bottles that have been turned into glasses!, they are pretty neat!

I am quite enjoying saving up all of my money, every penny goes into the fund, I am sure you all do the same!.

Where abouts in the North of Scotland Graham?

[KimandRuss 0]

Sounds like a plan Graham! Russ is working a contract job in NZ right now too. The extra $$$ is nice but it also helps the time to pass quicker! I'm sure it will be difficult leaving her but you'll be back before you know it!

Hey! I like my american beer!

It's funny how you get used to things. I simply can not stand most beers overseas! Now vodka... vodka's good all over!

You'd think we were a bunch of raging alcoholics!

[Nicoxcx 1]

I used to tease Steven about american beer, which makes no sense because I drink it

Kim I was just thinking that when I read the conversations above !

lol... I think we have a very good excuse for it...lol

[BexandAlan 0]

Jeez if there was anyone here who didn't drink before this process, USCIS is enough to push you into it!

[GrahamandMegan 1]

Hopefully be back before I know it Kim, I just hate this waiting around with someone else deciding our fate.

The job is for Scottish Water in Stornoway so I hope the money is good and I'll be out of here and back to earning some pennies.

You can't stand overseas beers as it's too strong for you guys, that's your problem right there!! Now give me a good pint of Strongbow over a Miller Lite any day of the week.
